So do you know about the Astranaut 45 or not ? TIA

Yes, although much slower. Flipside offers Part two. California based label. Marc

Funnily enough this tune keeps coming back to my mind from time to time since a few weeks now...I must have been an idiot to sell it about a year ago or so. Indeed a fabuloustune...how much did you have to pay for it ? Marc

Bearing in mind that it already used to be 20/25 UKP more then ten years ago now I could this well imagine going up in value soon. Not that I hope so anyway... Just a thought. Marc

Can`t remember the last time I read such an unnecessary and useless post so full of stupid prejudices.

I paid 20 UKP for this nice 45 last year at a certain record shop in Manchester

Hi, nice you remember that it was "Let George Do It" and was given away in the early sixties only to Radio Discjockey to promote the election campaign for one politician called "George". Of course this is by far the rarest (and one of the best IMVHO) Jackie Wilson 45s you can look out for. Marc

"I Am Not Going To Work Today" on SS7...anyone know what the price of this Hideaway spin is ? TIA Marc

Think Butch is responsible (again) for this being "hot" at the moment (again).

Nothing as it used to be on his own site. Now it is up for sale the site that is (if anyones interested).

Sold mine to Paul Welsby three years ago for about 100 UKP which was a bargain. Never seen it again since then. Marc

they are definitely one and the same , I agree with you Marc

250 maybe less...

Hi Chalky having both versions I can tell you teh are not identical. Although you` re right that thir voices sound at least very similar. But then again it shares a slightly different backing track.

Manship has one put one up for auction

It had been sold afterwards anyway. (No, not to me...)

There has just been done a new cd focussing on Sal Soul Records the soulful way...title escapes me at present, but it got a plug thru the latest Anglo list. Marc

Heard Flynny preferring the flipside but I never heard it...soundfile anyone ? TIA Marc

"One More Chance" in stone mint condition. 200 UKP incl. reg. postage. offlist please via marc.forrest@gmx.net Thanks for your interest !

On what other label did he also record again please ?

Definitely not for the first time

I traded mine six years ago against Leroy Taylor on Shrine if that is of any help to you.
